Aw c'mon, NBC. They surely could have done better than what they did on this week's "Rock Center with Brian Williams."

Aw c'mon, NBC. They surely could have done better than what they did on this week's "Rock Center with Brian Williams." I have been impressed with their in-depth reporting but am disappointed with the shallow, superficial coverage in their recent report on The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints.

The part on families and the LDS Church's care for the needy was excellent, but missing were the core beliefs, the organizational structure, leadership, statistics, etc. The emphasis on the well-publicized stereotypes were only distractions.

If you were expecting a piece that was going to bring more into the fold, I
think you set your expectations WAY to high. NBC is a third party not
interested in converting. So their outside perception of Mormons won't
ever be what you want.

The program was overwhelmingly positive. Stop complaining. It wasn't a
missionary program. They could have focused on a lot of negative things.
